On the other hand, in the production process of a polymer emulsion, when using a nonionic surfactant, it is necessary to once dissolve it in water as a dispersion medium. In the case of nonionic surfactants such as polyoxyethylene nonylphenyl ether and polyoxyethylene dodecyl ether which have been conventionally used, it takes a long time to dissolve or it is necessary to heat the nonionic surfactant together with water. there were. In particular, in emulsion polymerization by the pre-emulsion method in which a monomer is emulsified in water in advance and added to the polymerization system, mixing and emulsification of a heated, high-temperature nonionic surfactant aqueous solution with the monomer is a sudden polymerization. It must be avoided because of the risk of reaction.
Therefore, when heating and dissolving the nonionic surfactant in water, a cooling step is also required. 10 easy to dilute in advance
Although there is a means for preparing an aqueous solution of a nonionic surfactant of -20% by weight and adding a necessary amount, this also has a disadvantage that a separate storage tank is required.
